I went to a club maker today, for 2 reasons.
Firstly to have my lofts and lies checked (and bend my GW to 51), but also to get another opinion on whether my shafts were right for me.
He tested the flex in my clubs which are supposed to be 6.0.
They were actually equivalent to midway between 6.0 & 6.5!
Then I hit some balls with my own 6 iron, and some with a club with a PX 5.5 in.
The 5.5 added 3-4mph to my swing speed with the same swing, and felt better too. It also added quite a bit of spin and a small increase in distance.
So the question is, what is a reasonable price to pay for soft stepping, which he said would make the shafts approximately equivalent to about 5.7, if I wanted to go ahead with it.
Would you change?
